Something not working?

If, during the spin cycle, the machine makes an unusual whistling noise, different from the noise made

by traditional washing machines, this is due to a new type of motor.

If water is not visible in the drum, this is due to the modern technology of new washing machines that use less water than traditional machines.

Troubleshooting

If a problem arises, you can try to solve it yourself following the instructions below. If you call out an engineer when one of the follow- ing problems arises, or to repair a fault due to incorrect use, the call- out will be charged even if requested within the guarantee period.
